Warrior Robbie As soon as we sit our asses down in Nick's office where both Shane and Will are already waiting for us I waste no time in filling them in on everything. Nick had already told me what Shane had found out last night but I'm not mad at him for telling him. I understand the situation he was in and I probably would have done the same if I had been in his position.“Fuck!” Will grunts as soon as I finish speaking. “Fuck man, I don't know whether to congratulate you or give you my sympathy.” Nick and Shane nod agreeing while I try and figure out what to say next but thankfully, Nick seems to understand my struggle as he speaks up for me.“So, we need to talk with the women and children. We need to collect information from them so that we can figure out who needs help getting back home and who needs a home. There are more than likely a few Rogues in the group but it doesn't necessarily mean that they will want to be again so I'd like to be able to give them options. More impor
Warrior RobbieWithin twenty minutes we have six groups all huddled into different areas of the room as we get ready to talk to them. Considering how many children are currently in this room I thought it would have taken us much longer to get them organised but they were incredibly well behaved which I'm grateful for."Now, while I understand that you would like to be the one to talk to your mate, I also understand if you've changed your mind and would prefer for someone else to do it. There's no judgment from any of us if you worry that you can't handle it."Once again Nick's concern is appreciated but if anyone's going to be speaking to my Mate it's me. "I'm good. I've got this," I grunt. He gives me a nod as he starts telling everyone what group they are to take while I walk to the one at the far end when my mate is sitting at the back of the row looking a little lost and a little scared. Fcuk, I wish that I could help calm her down but until she is of age she won't feel any part o
Warrior RobbieThe moment he says my mate's name I feel my blood instantly boil. Who the fuck is this motherfucker? If he thinks he can just stroll in here and walk right on out with my mate then he's got another thing coming. I will tear him limb from limb before I let that happen. "Who are you and how the hell did you even get in here?" I growl trying and failing to keep my tone calm. He raises a single brow as a cocky smile covers his face and I swear it takes all I have not to knock him the fuck out right here right now."Do it. On second thoughts, let me at him. Fucker won't have a thing to be cocky about by the time I'm finished with him." Cain growls as he comes to the front of my mind. "I'd be more than happy to let you do it but right now, we need to find out what exactly it is that this prick wants with our mate." He doesn't say another word but he grunts and stomps around in my head hard enough to make it more than clear about how he feels and I get it, I do because I feel
Warrior RobbieThis new development involving my mate has thrown me through a loop. And this idiot who's turned up here claiming to be her mate... yeah, he's really not helping things. There's something up with him. I can't tell you what it is, at least not right now anyway, but I can feel it, I can sense it and I have a feeling that shits going to hit the fan very soon and he going to be a dead man."Aria, you have my word as Alpha of this pack that you won't be forced to do anything that you don't want to by anyone. Nor will you be forced to go anywhere or with anyone that you don't want to." Nick's words are soft and considerate and I want to hug him for how he's being with my mate. "Thank you," she whispers as she looks at Nick with tears in her eyes."She's my mate, she's mine, I own her and you can't stop me from taking her with me. You can't hold her against her will!" Talon bellows getting seriously pissed. Oh well, too bad too sad for him. He takes another step forward and I
Warrior Robbie "I'm sorry, he's your fucking what?" The words tumble from my mouth before I even have a chance to think about it. I know that prick said that he was her mate, and yes it pissed me off to no end, but I knew that it was all bullshit because she's my mate so I held the anger in but hearing her say it hits differently and I'm instantly ready to tear the room apart.I feel her tense up next to me and swiftly realise that I need to rein in my anger because I'm scaring her, and that is the last thing that I should do, that I want to do. I duck my head down so that we are face to face. "I'm sorry," I whisper to her. "You're safe, Aria. My anger is not directed at you.No matter the reason for my anger, you will never have to fear me. I will never take it out on you in any way." I still don't know what she's been through yet, but either way, I know that it hasn't been good, but I'll make dam sure that she knows that her future will be different, that it will be good. That she
Warrior RobbieHearing my mate's story is hard but I'm glad that she's willing to talk to us. She's come from goddess only knows what and is currently sitting in a room with a bunch of big scary looking guys and yet, she not holding back. She's nothing if not incredibly brave thats for sure. Not that she has anything to fear from any of us but she doesn't know that, not yet anyway."Where did you come from?" Shane asks bringing my attention back to my mate. "We were Rogues. We were only a small pack. There were maybe thirty of us. They... they killed all the men and some of the women when they put up a fight and then of course there were the ones that got away and the remaining five were taken to that camp." I'm going to hunt down every single wolf that is involved in these camps and I'm going to end them all no matter how long it takes."So what happened when you met Talon?" Nick asks bringing the conversation back around. "He picked out a girl and told her that she was his and then
Alpha NicholasWhen in the ever-loving fuck did life become such a shit show? It feels like one minute everything was as calm as can be and the next bang... my entire world went tumbling inside out and upside down. In the space of two months, my brothers and I have gone from having no mates to all of us finding our mates, and every single mate has come along with a bang of their own.Now, don't mistake my complaining for any kind of resentment towards any of the women because it isn't like that. The incidents that have happened since they arrived here haven't been their fault and I know that my brothers and I have all been more than happy to help like we us. None of us regret a single one of the women arriving here and what we've had to do to keep them safe.Hell, after having Lottie, Bonnie is the best thing to ever happen to me but fuck, we can't catch a break. It's one thing after another and it's fucking draining. My mate has been here for almost six weeks and I still have not had
Alpha NicholasSomehow, I managed to remain calm while I carried my mate up to our floor and into our bedroom, but the moment that I laid her down and took in how innocent she always looks when she is sleeping, I felt the anger come back full force causing my body to shake with the anger simmering through my veins.That prick Talon thinking that he could come on to my pack lands and into my pack house and take away a young girl who is currently under my protection is bad enough, but those mother fuckers who were supposed to be loyal to me, loyal to everyone here betraying us is soul-destroying.Worst of all, instead of doing their job and protecting the people of this pack, they went and betrayed us. They hurt people that they have worked alongside for years. People that they have stood side by side with during good and bad times. People who would have laid their lives down for them, no questions asked. They have taken away a dad from his pups and fuck, just thinking about it makes me
Bonnie Nick stayed true to his word, and neither of us got much sleep last night. We were awake until almost 3 am, and even after that, Nick woke me up twice and made love to me before we passed back out. And if that wasn't enough, he then woke me up at 7 am with his head between my legs. I swear that man would live between my legs if he could, not that you'll ever hear me complaining.First thing this morning, after we had both showered and dressed, Nick was on the phone with the doctor and had an appointment arranged right away. Of course, this is in no way a coincidence. Being the Alpha and future Luna of this pack is without a doubt, the only reason that we got an appointment so soon, but I'm grateful for that.Everyone knows that pregnancy tests can be false, and as much as I've had physical signs of pregnancy, I still need physical proof that it's real, because until I do, I keep worrying that there's been a mistake, and the thought of that makes me want to cry. What if it is w
Alpha NicholasAfter spending twenty minutes between my mate's legs and drawing several orgasms from her, I'm so turned on I'm harder than a box of nails, and as much as I want to spend several more hours between her legs, I want to get my dick between them even more, I need to. I place one more kiss on her mound as I pull my fingers out of her soaking-wet pussy and can't help but smirk when she makes a noise of protest. My girl is greedy when it comes to orgasms and I fucking love it."I haven't finished with you yet, baby girl. Don't worry." I look up to see her smiling, but it quickly turns into a moan when I gently slap her pussy before slowly making my way up her body, leaving a trail of kisses along the way. I cover her body with mine as I reach her mouth and dive in kissing her with all I have. I groan as our tongues tangle together, and I explore every inch of her mouth. Fuck, will I ever get enough of her?I pull back when I'm out of breath and watch as my mate's chest rises
BonnieBoy, has it been a day! A very long, emotionally draining day, but I'm oddly kind of glad that it happened. Of course, hearing Lottie talk to me about how she felt and taking in the words that she said and the meaning behind it all was heartbreaking, but I do believe that having her talk to Nick and me about how she's been feeling was a good thing.One because it explains why she said all of the things that she did and two because maybe now that she has finally said everything out loud, it will help her too because she had a lot of thoughts and feelings and while some of them are a result from the pain that her birth mom has caused her during her life, some of them also just resembled an act of a jealous teenage girl.The quicker she learns that she isn't going to be replaced or forgotten or lose me or this baby the better because I hate to think of her suffering like that. And while I can't promise that nothing won't happen to the baby, I can promise that I will do everything p
Alpha Nicholas Hearing my daughter's fears was hard. I never want her to be scared of anything, but whereas I will always do my best to protect her from physical harm, I can't do a lot to protect her from her mental fears. As much as I want to, it's just not possible. The scars that her birth mom left behind have the potential to haunt her for a long time, possibly even for the rest of her life.As hard as it must be for her to feel how she does or how she did, I can't and won't allow her to talk to anyone like she did, especially Bonnie. While she has my sympathy, if I let her get away with this without any kind of punishment, then I won't be doing my job as her dad. Yes, her words had meaning and I somewhat understand how she feels, but she didn't need to talk to Bonine like she did, and just the mere thought of her in any way mentioning killing the baby has me seeing red.If I let her speak to Bonnie... her stepmom... her Luna like she did, then I can only imagine how she could sp
BonnieI'd be lying if I said that hearing those words out of Lottie's mouth didn't break my heart and I can both sense and feel that Nick feels the same. There are so many things that I want to say to her right now, but I hold back both wanting and feeling that Nick should take the lead here.He takes a deep breath while keeping his eyes locked with hers. "If that's the truth, then yes, that's what I want to hear. We need to get to the bottom of whatever is going on, no matter how hard it may be for you to say or for us to hear." Nick tries to remain calm, but I can feel his emotions, and they are all over the place. "So, is that the truth?"She nods her head as she wipes more tears away from her eyes. "Why, sweetheart? Why are you feeling jealous?" She stares at Nick, but I can see it in her eyes. She is struggling to word what she wants to say, but I'm pretty sure that I have it figured out, so I just go with it and blurt it out. "Lottie, am I right in thinking that you're jealous
BonnieI hate the feeling that everyone is currently against Lottie, or having any kind of bad thoughts against her, and while I know it's stupid given the situation, I just can't help it. There is already a protective streak inside me when it comes to Lottie and, regardless of the situation, it's hard to switch off."Lottie, would you like to tell your grandparents and uncles what you have done, or even better why?" Nick asks her, although it's more of a command than a question. Lottie's face slightly pales while everyone in the room just looks confused, and I get it.While Lottie is a typical 16-year-old girl with hair, makeup and talks about finding mates being a part of her daily life, from what I've been told and come to learn myself since I've been here, it doesn't appear that Lottie has caused a lot of trouble in her life. She seems to be a pretty well-behaved girl, so I can only imagine that everyone is a bit confused right now.I grab my mate's attention and lean into him, ke
Alpha Nicholas"I'm sorry, sweetheart. Can you say that again?" My mate hiccups as she tries to calm herself down and control her breathing. "Lottie, She said that you don't want any more children. She said that you have never wanted any other children aside from her." What the fuck is my daughter playing at?While I know that my daughter isn't innocent because let's be honest, no children are, I still can't imagine her ever being mean to Bonnie, especially over a baby, and her baby brother or sister at that. Growing up, she had always wanted a sibling, so why would she react like this now? Whatever her reason, I'm fucking angry and my pregnant mate is completely heartbroken, and I want this shit sorted out right now!"Where is she?" I growl. I'm trying to keep my anger under control, but it's so fucking hard right now. "I don't want this to... I..." Before she can finish her sentence she breaks down crying once more, and I swear that every single tear that she shreds feels like it te
Bonnie After not feeling well for a few days, I was starting to get a little worried. Werewolves don't generally get ill, but here I was constantly tired. I was sick in the mornings and my appetite was all over the place and yet, I still didn't put the pieces together, but Nick's mom did. Earlier today, while the guys were down in the cells, she came to see me. Nick had gone to her worried about me and, because so far I had refused to see a doctor, he had asked her to come and see me, hoping that maybe he could figure out what was wrong with me.Of course, within minutes of me telling her what was wrong, she had worked it out all while a massive smile appeared on her face. The moment she told me that she was certain that I was pregnant, I wanted to pass out. Of course, looking back now, I realize that the symptoms were all there screaming in my face, but for some reason, I had missed them all.I generally hadn't even thought about the possibility that I could be pregnant, which was s
Alpha NicholasThe moment I step on to the Alpha floor, I feel my body instantly start to relax and, after a quick chat with my parents, my dad ushers her, the girls and the guards out of my lounge and off my floor, clearly sensing my need for alone time with my mate, which I appreciate. Before he left, he insisted on having the guards stationed at the bottom of the stairs that lead to my floor, which I have no problem with. They are close enough for our protection, more importantly, the protection of my mate, but also far enough away not to impose on any of my alone time with my mate. The stairs that they are now guarding are the only way to gain access to my floor, so I can finally allow my mind to settle and forget about all the shit that's going on, even if it's only for a few hours.When I first stepped on to our floor, I could faintly smell Bonnie's scent, but the moment I entered our bedroom it hit me in the face like a hammer, and I'm instantly in need of her. I look down at t
